Laminitis can be the end product or a by-product of a spread of diseases. The seriousness of occurrence can also alter with circumstances.
When a mare foals, make awfully sure that the placenta is totally removed post birth. A somewhat ejected placenta can stimulate internal acid reactions and the activation of endotoxins that might kick off rounds of laminitis.
Laminitis can be the result of putting a pony thru sustained strenuous work on terrain that's too harsh, particularly if the horse is absolutely unused to such terrain.
Hormonal effects are also major reasons behind laminitis, though the precise working of these elements hasn't been fully understood yet. What's known is 'broodmares' appear to have a powerful bias toward retarding symptoms that go with the initial onset of laminitis, while mares in regular cycle show symptoms in a rather more pronounced manner.
Viral reaction factors can arise due to unusually high body temperatures which then lead to the onset of laminitis. In such cases, symptoms of laminitis seem to manifest themselves about 2 or 3 weeks after the viral condition prevailed. This sort of situation leaves ridges, also known as 'fever rings', on the walls of the hoof. Fever rings are a form of easily legible tale that may give the observer a reasonable notion of the history of basic health of the pony.
Horses that have received cortisone in high amounts, or in small amounts but over extended periods, are really susceptible to laminitis.
I repeat, "Viral reaction factors can arise due to unusually high body temperatures which then lead to the onset of laminitis.
